RSHE 2025 mapping matrix
The revised RSHE statutory guidance was published on 15 July 2025 and becomes compulsory on 1 September 2026. The matrix below maps every Guided Childhood module to the guidance topics it substantively teaches, including the newly named content: harms of pornography, misogynistic online cultures and incel groups, deepfakes, online gambling, and illegal online behaviours.
Honesty note: a module is marked only where it substantively teaches the topic. This scheme is a digital literacy and online safety programme designed to sit inside your wider PSHE provision, not to replace it. Each lesson additionally carries its KCSIE 2025 hooks and Education for a Connected World strands, shown beneath the matrix.
